Account requiredWhy it scored this way

Every reason behind the verdict rather than the headline one — which of your certifications match, how much runway is left, whether the work is your size, and what we would need to know to sharpen it.

New Requirement, No Contract
No incumbent. A new requirement means nobody is defending a position here, and no one has an insider’s head start on the scope.

Who to talk to

At the forecast stage there is no active procurement, so contact is welcome rather than restricted — this is the one window where a direct conversation is straightforwardly appropriate.

The Small Business Specialist is usually the better first call. Helping firms like yours find and compete for this work is their actual job, and they can tell you whether a set-aside is still under consideration.

Market intelligence

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays

Comparable awards under NAICS 481211 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.

Statement of work, as posted

In order to support declared or undeclared emergencies, disaster response operations and other national events and incidents within the United States, and its territories, FEMA may need to transport responders, personnel, survivors, equipment, and vehicles to and from affected areas. To meet this need, FEMA requires a contracted source of air transportation services for various types of FAA certified chartered jet aircraft services with the additional ability to provide fixed and rotary wing aircraft. A charter flight is typically defined as a flight that is not part of an airline published schedule.

Ask about the acquisition strategy

Ask whether a set-aside is being considered, which vehicle is planned, and whether the agency wants industry input. This is the question that can still change the outcome.

Open email
